A timely reminder that a good manager is someone other people believes is a good manager, someone who can inspire, create loyalty, are brilliant at helping people feel more appreciated and help others to do more to progress their personal and overarching business goals. That a manager is in reality
anyone who works with others to achieve an outcome, especially if they have a role in the other person's future in an organization.

This book is concise and clearly written, and acts as an interesting manual of "set-pieces" on how to be a good manager - for the results, relationships and reputation of the organisation.

This book can be one of the manuals for managers. Really good and well structured contents can walk you through the challenges and day to day life of a manager. There are some good points about time management and classic goal setting, people management and communication, strategy drive and company culture alignment. Some stories illustrate the theoretical examples and help to understand concepts better. You will find reflection notes and questions to ask yourself on how you perform as a manager.

A decent book that has some good information for people who want to be better managers. I liked the call outs in each chapter, and the checklists for actions to take now. A bit repetitive, but that's to be expected. 3.5/5
